YMCA Closes Deal On Former Racquet Club
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
The Kosciusko Community YMCA board of directors closed on the purchase of the Warsaw Racquet Club.
The center is currently open to YMCA members and guests. A formal dedication of the YMCA Racquet Center is planned Oct. 10, which marks the 40th anniversary of the YMCA's main facility opening.
The Y board signed an agreement with Garry and Sherry England to purchase the Warsaw Racquet Club in May. The K21 Foundation board of directors, recognizing the YMCA's role in the health and wellness of the community, approved a grant of $500,000 in June to assist the Y financially. Garry and Sherry England also donated an adjoining 10.76-acre parcel of land as well as the equipment at the Racquet Club to the YMCA.
Steve Jungbauer is the YMCA's chief executive officer.
The YMCA re-opened the Racquet Center in June, offering court rentals and fitness facilities to members and non-members. Drew Ummel will offer classes and leagues for the youth, teens, adults and seniors.
Fall Session One is Sept. 6 through Oct. 23. Registration for all fall classes began Aug. 22. The YMCA Racquet Center Committee of John Rice, Sherry England, Joe Beeson, Ron Hutcherson and Vicki Sasso worked this summer to prepare for the fall opening.
With the purchase of the racquet center, the YMCA can provide additional member benefits, easy access for area residents and growth in programs to meet current and future community needs. The YMCA's strategic plan calls for building a new YMCA on the racquet center property. After the construction is completed, the Smith Street location will continue to operate as a branch facility, along with the North Webster Fitness Center in the North Webster Community Center.
The Kosciusko Community YMCA, a not-for-profit organization, provides community-based programs that build healthy spirits, minds and bodies for the youth, teens, adults and seniors. The facilities in Warsaw and North Webster helps build strong kids, strong families and strong communities. The Kosciusko Community YMCA does not deny any youth, adult or family membership or participation based on their inability to pay. Financial assistance and discounts are available. During 2004, the YMCA provided $558,000 in financial assistance, discounts and subsidies to the residents of Kosciusko County.
